Introduction to Pedestal

"A conceptual framework is a 'frame that works' to put those concepts into practice."

- Paul Hughes

Microservices are implemented using a particular technology stack, which serves a single-bounded context and provides services around it. The services exposed for the external world must be scalable and support direct messaging as well as asynchronous requests. Pedestal (http://pedestal.io/) is one such Clojure framework that fits in well to create reliable and scalable services for microservice-based applications. It also fits in well with the Clojure stack of the Helping Hands application. In this chapter, you will:

  • Learn about the basic concepts of Pedestal
  • Learn how to define Pedestal routes and interceptors
